Sorting it out!



Hey Bloggers, it's Laudjah! I've missed writing these blogs and I'm happy to get into this "groove", lol. I'm so excited to start filming this short film. I've had a couple set backs so I couldn't start filming when I originally planned to. Doing this film by myself as been a challenge that as lowkey been hard to conquer. Finding people that want to be in something they get no type of compensation for is hard. They don't fully the importance of this project/class. They people I originally planned to film with, well 2/3 or 4 have been pretty compliant. Others unfortunately just see this as a fun project. As it will be fun to make, it's also important that it doesn't just look like a "fun" mini film, but something that represents all that I've learned. It keeps getting shut down or being put on the back burner for some.

As I'm writing this, I'm coming to the realization that I need to find people that maybe took the class during AS level so can understand why this is really important to me. I understand why they aren't as serious, we're teenagers many only think of themselves, which is totally ok. Also, it's testing season to finding a day that fits with everyone is important. We're all taking rigorous classes, so I get it. It's really important to study for all of those exams.

So while I can't film certain things, I am still filming the things I can myself, and editing as I go. This is helping not have a lot of stress over the project. I'm learning from my mistakes last year. Last year definitely was eye opening.

But that's it for this one, Bloggers! I'm excited to have y'all on this journey with me. Also can't wait to see the outcome.

Xoxo, Laudjah.

          Hey bloggers, its Laudjah. It's time to crunch down on how I'm going to do the production of my commerical. Let's get into to how I' m actually going to film it. I'm going to be using my iPhone 11 to film anything that needs to be filmed. I don't have a professional camera to use, but the iPhone is literally just as good as an average camera. For the actual editing, I'm going to be using an app called "CapCut". I've used this app before and used it before. It did go viral on TikTok for it being a easy tool to edit and it really is easy to use, like A+ to those who made it. I've never had to edit or film anything for like a class so I want it to look good. I already had to app downloaded from using it previously. Knowing I had to use it I looked up on TikTok how you could use it for editing videos and not just making "edits" as you could see on that app. I started just playing in the app to get a feel of how to work it. I...

Final Task Group Blog

  Hey Bloggers! Let’s get into the details of my Final Task. For the project I’m gonna be working with some friends. I’m gonna work with Alyssa, she’s in my class, and Maria, she’s in a different class. I’m working with Alyssa because I’ve known her since freshman, she’s one of my good friends, and I know she’s reliable. Maria and I just started becoming close this year and I feel like she’s a good person to work with. This wasn’t the original plan for the people I was going to work with. A friend that Alyssa and I know we’re planning on working together, but they chose to work with other people. It was slightly more out of convenience. Since he worked with them perviously on the music video, he decided to just stay with them for the final task. So I get it, I guess. For our Final Task I was thinking about doing like a horror type video or a little drama thriller, but I don't know time will tell.  The reason why this song was picked was because like those are amazing genre's s...
